We tore down all the steel mills 'n 'at.

Shouldn't that count for something?

I propose the following experiment to put this issue to bed:

In one containment tank an angler will hook a Bass, and observers will watch it jump, swim hard, and pull against the line and hook.

In another containment area, a Peta supporter will bite into a tofu burger laced with a treble hook and an angler with 200lb test line and a tuna rod will subdue the Peta specimen. The angler will set the hook on the unsuspecting peta specimen.

If the Peta specimen can pull, run the other way and jump against the treble hook embedded in his mouth I will concede the issue that fish feel pain.
